What a gorgeous day it is today. But the glare from the sun, the sweet scent of grass and the chirping of the birds had abruptly intruded my beautiful fantasy. The sun rudely interrupted my dream, and as I stood balanced on my feet, I realized the world is still controlled by gravity, that no magical door had opened to release me to a land of euphoria and freedom.
The night had given me delusions of dreams and fantasies, but as day came, I come to accept the fact that delusions are after all, just tricks of the night. I have come to my senses and will be deceived no longer by the night. We have to accept that fact that our passion and love last night, were nothing more than facades of lust cursed by the darkness.
I know I said so myself that there is nothing in a name, that a rose called by any other name would smell as sweet. But, a rose, after all, is still called a rose, and in our world, “rose” will forever be its name. The name “rose”, is what people will forever call it, and a sweet smell, will always be expected from roses. I, am a Capulet, and you, are a Montague, these names will forever define us, and there is no use to try and defy this fact set in the stars.
I will forever treasure the memories from last night. All you are to me now, is an out of grasp delusion and a beautiful memory.
Yours,
Juliet
